You kill all the gods? So no sequels I'm guessing, lol!

And it will make the first two games look like babies how? Graphically? Well it is the PS3, if it can't deliver on graphics then I'm not sure what saving grace there is for it.

I just hope it isn't rushed like God of War 2 or falls relatively under the radar like the one for the PSP.

Well Zen considering all Ive seen from you is hate for anything on a playstation console, its not suprising to see you talk that way(yes All you post when it comes to a playstation system is "negativity").

 

All you've seen from me may seem negative, but I'll I've written is not. Also, I'm not being negative about the game, I'm just stating my opinion about the franchise. I've never hated on Metal Gear, Disgaea, or any good franchise(franchises I like) on the PS3. In fact, I love those games. My hatred of God of War has nothing to do, at all, with my Sony foeboyism. You should believe me on that score. I recognize others like the game, but I don't, and there is a rather large group of beat-em-up fans who agree with me on this topic, but I'd rather not over-run the thread with conversation about the quality of past itterations.

For the guy who asked why I even posted in the thread, I was hoping to get across the message early to stop overhyping games for years ahead of time, because it just turns the game into some unobtainable symbolance of perfection, when it just isn't.

I can post my opinion anywhere I want, as long as I'm not trolling, and I certainly wasn't trolling.

Exactly, ps3 fans overhyped SOCOM and MS2, and 360 fans NJ2 and Too Human and everybofy knows how it turn around. Just wait to see the first videos and intervious and then start...

The odds of God of War 3 selling anywhere near 6 million lifetime are slim to none. The last two games combined don't have 6 million between them and GoW is almost entirely sold to that knowledgeable gamer demographic, as can be seen by how terribly number 2 sold after the current generation systems arrived. My guess is 2.5-3 million lifetime, with a bit more if it gets bundled.

1. Graphics are expected to be good on any game coming out. Unless this somehow affects gameplay positively, it's just going to be eye candy that will wear off after a moment.

2. I couldn't agree more about this. I hope this is the final game so they go buckwild with Gods and Titans all being massacred by Kratos.

Agreed, and let's add the fact that no PS3 game has sold 6million.

There must be a firm reason to say why a game will do well. History shows that both the franchise and PS3 games don't even get close to this benchmark, yet you say it will. There must always be a sound reason, not just bizzar predictions. Heck, even John Lucas gives reason for his madness.

Not that the game wont be good.

Reasons

1. Grahpics are suposed to be exaclty like the one teaser we've seen!

2. You kill all the gods! all out epic war! (if they make like a side level u can play online where u all u do is pick a god or titan and fight eachother in massive open battlefields the game will be un beatable)

 

how many copies do you guys think it will sell on launch and lifetime

My prediciton is Launch 1.5million and Lifetime 6 million.

 

 

Let me get this straight. On a system with a vastly larger user base, God of War 1 sold a bit over 3 million. God of War 2 sold a bit over 2 million. Then, on the PSP, God of War: COO sold a bit over 1 million.

Now, with all of that evidence in hand, on a system with a much smaller user base than the PS2, you expect God of War 3 to reverse the trend of lower sales (GoW:COO sold less than GoW2 sold less than GoW1), but also to double the sales of the previous best selling version of this game?

It's very clear that some people just wish the world to be as they want it, then estimate the future based on their wishful thinking, and not on empirical data.

Man, i can't wait for this game.

I've been studying the CGI trailer, and I honestly think the game will look very close to that. The water at the beginning and the close up of Kratos' eyes are obviously not possible, but everything else is. Even the impressive cliff scene looks possible, because the area in the furthest distance is actually 2D (it's kind've hard to tell).

Look at it this way, the game will be using an engine even more advanced than Killzone 2's, while cramming all the detail of that engine into smaller environments with a guided camera.

I can only imagine what the blood will be like. :O

You're crazy. The game will be lucky if it gets 2M LTD. God of War is not a sought after game obviously looking back at its sales on the PS2. If you think it's going to pull a 180 and be a front runner now you're kidding yourself.
